Instructions:

Soak the dried tomatoes in lukewarm water, squeeze well and chop finely.

Finely crumble the toast in a hand mixer and mix with lemon zest, pepper, dried tomatoes, finely chopped thyme and parsley leaves and a little olive oil. If necessary, add more salt – but be careful, the dried tomatoes are already salty! Season the fish lightly with salt and roll it all around in this mixture, pressing the breading really nice and smooth.

In the meantime, for the risotto, sauté the shallot in a saucepan with the olive oil. Add the long grain rice and saffron, sauté briefly and then extinguish with wine. Boil this completely, then gradually add the veal stock, stirring repeatedly. Stir in just enough vegetable soup in batches until the risotto has the ideal consistency. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper and refine with butter and whipped cream.

Fry the breaded monkfish in a mixture of olive oil and clarified butter on both sides for about two to three minutes. Serve with the saffron risotto.

By the way: Did you know that clarified butter is obtained by extracting water, milk protein and lactose from butter?
